Proposed Kentucky bill would require police chase policies By Mandy McLaren, Louisville Courier Journal Over the course of a single week last fall, seven Kentuckians lost their lives in a series of violent car crashes -- each stemming from a high-speed police chase. Three died in Paducah: a fleeing driver and his two teenage passengers. Three more died in Lexington, including two women whose car was struck head-on by a fleeing suspect. And in Anderson County, Jill Hurst, 18, was killed after a man running from police slammed into her friend's car as the teens were leaving a high school football game. A new bill filed in the Kentucky legislature is putting a spotlight on the tragedy. Full story at courier-journal.com 2020-02-04 08:44:43 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Politics
